What if I told you that you could wander through Brussels and still miss the most fascinating parts without even realizing it? Many travelers admire the Grand Place, taste a waffle or two, and think they’ve seen the city, when in reality, they’ve only touched the surface. Behind its elegant façades and cobblestone streets lie hidden corners filled with stories of revolution, art, and everyday life. Without local insight, it’s easy to overlook the quiet cafés where history was written, the quirky statues tucked away in side streets, and the authentic flavors that locals love but tourists rarely find. With our Walking Tour in Brussels, you can leave all that behind. Your guide tailors the experience to your interests, taking you through the city’s most iconic landmarks while revealing the secrets that make Brussels unforgettable. You’ll also get personalized recommendations on where to eat, drink, and explore beyond the typical routes, ensuring an authentic connection with the city.

Overall it was a very...

Overall it was a very good tour. Our guide, Mark was knowledgeable and should us some areas the locals use. My only issue was the meal we were served wasn't what was advertised. It was actually better for most people, but I don't eat mussels, so the substitute I got was a salad 🙁. We also did not get Belgium fries.

Great Brussels Overview Walking Tour

Our host, Andrea, was very knowledgeable in many areas to include not just the sites but their architecture, history of the area and culture. This was our first time in Brussels and after over 3 hours of a walking tour with Andrea, we feel we have a great overview of Brussels. Andrea was very pleasant and shared some fun secrets along the way that most people wouldn't know. We thoroughly enjoyed it.

Bruges Day Trip from Brussels

Natalia_G, Apr 2026

Great day trip for the price

I love a good day trip and this one did not disappoint. Antonio our guide was extremely knowledgeable about the history of the city as well as Belgium in general. We got lots of side history lessons which were very interesting. The city itself was very quaint in some areas with lots of small chocolate shops and other artisan stores, and more modern than others (e.g shopping district) but all set in historic buildings. There were lots of things to see and explore. I love that we got a guided tour and then we’re able to spend several hours on our own exploring. I would say if I could do it again I would spend more time in the section that had the smaller artisan shops and less time walking around the section that had more modern stores (eg like stores you would find in a mall). There are several spots that are very pretty for pictures, and several quiet spots to sit if you want to slow down a bit. We left and returned to the city on time (there was no traffic on our experience day Saturday, so that might differ on other days potentially). For the price is experience was above and beyond.

Bruges and Ghent Day Trip from Brussels

Crystal_N, Apr 2026

A Belgium Must

Blanca and Antonio were great guides through the beautiful cities of Bruges and Ghent. Blanca walked us through Bruges and ensured she gave us many recommendations of places to eat and to buy authentic Belgium cuisine from. She also ensured we had true Bruges chocolate to enjoy. The tour we received from Antonio through Ghent was fun and exciting. He ensured to tell us random facts that made the tour more interesting and gave us all a little laugh. He was open to questions and gave us multiple suggestions for authentic Belgium experiences in Ghent. He went above and beyond with giving us information on must sees in Brussels as well. I would highly recommend this tour for anyone staying Belgium. The chocolate and views were amazing!

Loved this experience. We...

Loved this experience. We had a wonderful group which made the experience even better. Dani was an excellent guide. She shared some amazing spots with us, ones we would have never found. Every stop was delicious, we even went back to a few during our stay. She also shared some great information about Brussels. It was a great to get a feel for the city and spend the afternoon. Highly recommend!

The Waffles 'n Beer Workshop in Brussels Centre

Weekend kick off

Location easy to find. The set up was done in advance and had everything needed. We learned about three types of beer with healthy pours then proceeded to make our own waffle batter with a beer of our choice (an ingredient). Our group was a lot of fun… Australia, Germany, Japan, Italy, USA… the waffles were delicious and plentiful. A perfect way to kick off a weekend in Brussels.

Kelvin_W, Jan 2026

Great class with great information and instructions

The instructor was very clear with her instructions and great with the kids in the class. The class was very informative. During the instructions and lessons, we got a sample of the cacao fruit, cacao nibs, and various chocolate types. The chocolate making portion of the class was also very instructive. My partner and I highly recommend this class.

Lovely trip with a friendly tour guide

We had a lovely tour of Bruges and Ghent with Mavliud of ProCapture Tours. He was professional, knowledgeable and, most importantly, very accommodative and flexible which was important since we were traveling with kids. We had a comfortable vehicle wholly to ourselves and a totally customizable itinerary. Would highly recommend this tour with ProCapture.

Brussels PRIVATE TOUR With Locals: Highlights & Hidden Gems

Sharon_K, Aug 2025

Perfection!

I had the best guide, Eric!! I chose a custom tour over a group walking tour because I am not used to waking much and have difficulty with stairs and hills, so I wanted a tour focusing on the must-see sights and did not want to slow down others on a group tour. Eric designed a tour just for me that was all downhill or flat!! He contacted me in advance to find out what I was/was not interested in and designed the tour with that in mind, and added “hidden gems” I didn’t even know I wanted to see! He even included a special request of mine not on a typical tour—to see Audrey Hepburn’s birthplace! Eric is very knowledgeable about the city’s history, and a fascinating and engaging storyteller! I learned so much and enjoyed the free chocolate tastings at a couple of the best chocolatiers! The pace was perfect (both the time spent at each sight and the pace of walking). Highly recommend asking for Eric Lamp as your custom tour guide!

Flanders Fields Remembrance Tour from Brussels

Stuart_W, May 2025

We Will Remember Them

A long day but a great day for history buffs and those wanting a reminder of the horrors and waste of life war causes! Last Post memorable/ we were lucky to have a choir as well- hard not to shed a tear or two! It is a long day so be prepared- if you don’t like getting on and off buses or late finishes give it a swerve but a 10/10 from me - thanks to Diedrich (sorry if wrong spelling) your knowledge was impressive! Stepping out the front line gave perspective and reassured the futility of war.
